"I think it's something I'd do well," McGraw, who is a Democrat, tells the February issue of Esquire magazine (on stands Monday). He announced his plans to run for governor of Tennessee someday. "I just think as governor of the state, there would be a lot more opportunities to make some decisions and change some things."

Not really Texas news, as McGraw is from Louisiana, and now lives in Tennessee. But I think he'd stand a far better chance than the Kinkster, and this will drive Sean Hannity nuts.
